Nationwide nearly doubles CEO’s pay packet to £4.7m despite bonus row
Nationwide Building Society has nearly doubled CEO Debbie Crosbie's total annual compensation to £4.7 million for the year ending March 2026, an 88% increase driven by £3.2 million in performance bonuses following the firm's takeover of Virgin Money. The pay hike faces criticism over the lack of a binding member vote on executive remuneration, with governance groups including the High Pay Centre arguing it conflicts with building society democratic values, while Nationwide leadership defends the pay as justified by strong company performance and expanded operational responsibilities.
